A new book about the Spanish dictator General Francisco Franco is saying that the dictator had one testicle. General Francisco Franco is thought to have suffered the injury in the same year Hitler suffered his (Berman Post: Hitler Had One Testicle). The specific battle was El Biutz which is near Ceuta (situated on the Moroccan coast).

"A new book suggests that the Spanish dictator General Francisco Franco lost a testicle when injured on the battlefield in 1916, the same year that the future Nazi leader is believed to have suffered his own, much mocked, loss.

In a new book by the Spanish historian José Maria Zavala, Ana Puigvert, who is a doctor, is quoted claiming that her grandfather Antonio Puigvert, a urologist known to have had Franco as a patient, had told her that the dictator only had one testicle."
